Growing guide for Canna Red Bulbs
Planting instructions
When planting your Red Canna bulbs, ensure a sunny spot with well-drained soil. Dig holes deep enough to accommodate the bulbs, typically about 4 to 6 inches deep, and space them around 1 to 2 feet apart. Plant with the eyes facing upwards and cover them lightly with soil.
Growing Requirements
Pests
Canna plants are generally resistant to pests and diseases. However, watch out for aphids, caterpillars, and spider mites. Treat any infestations promptly with organic pest control methods.
soil
Opt for well-draining, fertile soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 7.0. Incorporate organic matter such as compost or aged manure to enrich the soil.
spot
Choose a sunny location for your Red Canna bulbs, as they thrive in full sunlight. Ensure they receive at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal growth.
temperature
Canna bulbs prefer warm temperatures, ideally between 70°F to 85°F (21°C to 29°C). Protect them from frost, as they are sensitive to cold temperatures.
watering
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Reduce watering during the dormant season.
how to harvest
To harvest Canna flowers for vase decorations, wait until the blooms are fully open. Use sharp pruning shears to cut the stems at an angle, ensuring a clean cut. Remove any excess foliage and place the stems in a vase filled with fresh water. Change the water every few days to prolong the flowers' lifespan.
